Is it even possible to set such an application to run on startup? If it is how would you go about doing it?
What I've tried:
I compiled a program using the NI eclipse distribution and API and can run the program from Eclipse or by running it while SSH into the myRIO. The only documentation I could find relating to it is: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/B37FA04A1CB84B6C862571A30060EF03?opendocument&Submitted&&...
The link is a little outdated so I am not sure how relevant it is today. I changed the lines in lvrt.conf to:
RTTarget.ApplicationPath=/c/ni-rt/startup/startup.rtexe
RTTarget.LaunchAppAtBoot=True
I also tried launching the program like a script using rc.local which doesn't seem to be used the same way as it is in Ubuntu or I just don't know how to use it correctly. My compiled pogram does not come with the extension .rtexe although I can add it later which is probably not the same thing. I used LabVIEW to set a random VI to run as startup in order to see what it changes when setting a program to run at startup and it tells me that my previous rt program was corrupted and did not start.
Thanks
